People across Iran formed human chains near bridges and power plants amid rising tensions with the US and Israel. Videos shared by Iranian authorities showed crowds holding hands and chanting in support of the power sector. The move follows strong warnings from Donald Trump, who said, “A whole civilisation will die tonight,” while threatening strikes on key infrastructure. Iran said it wants an end to the conflict but rejected pressure over the Strait of Hormuz. Israel said it carried out fresh strikes, while Iran warned of a “major retaliatory strike” after a senior intelligence official was killed.
